Today, we pray for love to fill our world

Lord Jesus, today we pray for love – Your kind of sincere, gentle, giving, honest, consistent and sacrificial love to fill our hearts and lives. Thank You for Your love that surpasses all human understanding; the love which is food and medicine to our souls. Now help us pass it on, especially to our inner circle and those outside who need it the most. Let love not be manipulated or abused. A prayer for those whom we find hardest to love today. Amen.

May us human beings learn to respect and love life – any creature that You created. Amen.

As we remember the love of the Heavenly Father who sent His only begotten Son to save us, may we be filled with longing to serve Him and Him alone, by loving Him and His own like He...

Today, we pray for our mothers

Lord Jesus, on this day we bring to You our mothers and mother figures – those precious women who carried us in their wombs, nurtured us, prayed for us, corrected us and loved us, even while punishing us. May her every tear, prayer be answered by You, Almighty God, especially the ones for her family. Help us women become good Christian mothers who put you first and family second.
